    Instructions

    • Add all the ingredients to a blender except the gnocchi and the olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy.
      3 roasted red bell peppers, 175 g block silken tofu, 5-6 basil leaves, 3 cloves of garlic, ½ smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, ⅓ cup nutritional yeast, ½ cup vegetable broth or water, 1 tablespoon tomato paste, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    • Heat the olive oil in a rimmed pan or a Dutch oven until hot. Add the uncooked gnocchi and fry for 5 minutes or until golden brown.
      1 tablespoon olive oil, 500 g uncooked gnocchi
    • Pour the sauce into the pan and stir. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until thickened. If it starts to splatter too much, cover it with a lid. Make sure to stir frequently so the gnocchi don't stick to the pan and burn.
    • When thickened to your liking, remove from the heat. Serve with the burrata ball on top, more fresh basil, and a drizzle of olive oil.
